GRR Rapid Response is an incident response framework focused on remote live forensics. The goal of GRR is to support forensics and investigations in a fast, scalable manner to allow analysts to quickly triage attacks and perform analysis remotely. GRR consists of 2 parts: client and server. GRR client is deployed on systems that one might want to investigate. On every such system, once deployed, GRR client periodically polls GRR frontend servers for work. "Work" means running a specific action: downloading file, listing a directory, etc. GRR server infrastructure consists of several components (frontends, workers, UI servers) and provides web-based graphical user interface and an API endpoint that allows analysts to schedule actions on clients and view and process collected data.

Changes: This is an off-schedule release with a fix for a client-repacking bug introduced in v3.2.3.0.

I2P is an anonymizing network, offering a simple layer that identity-sensitive applications can use to securely communicate. All data is wrapped with several layers of encryption, and the network is both distributed and dynamic, with no trusted parties. This is the source code release version.

Lynis is an auditing tool for Unix (specialists). It scans the system and available software to detect security issues. Beside security related information it will also scan for general system information, installed packages and configuration mistakes. This software aims in assisting automated auditing, software patch management, vulnerability and malware scanning of Unix based systems.

Malbait is a honeypot written in perl. It creates fake servers and supports both TCP and UDP protocols, either singly or in combination. It outputs in CSV format as well as giving more detailed text reports. You can serve fake Telnet, FTP, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, TR-69, IMAP, asciitime, systat and echo servers, as well as serving blank or random output.

msploitego is the pentesting suite for Maltego. msploitego leverages the data gathered in a Metasploit database by enumerating and creating specific entities for services. Services like samba, smtp, snmp, http have transforms to enumerate even further.

Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. It also enables software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features. It provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy. Individuals can use it to keep remote Websites from tracking them and their family members. They can also use it to connect to resources such as news sites or instant messaging services that are blocked by their local Internet service providers (ISPs).

Changes: Tor 0.3.3.7 backports several changes from the 0.3.4.x series, including fixes for bugs affecting compatibility and stability. And as usual, there are numerous other smaller bugfixes, features, and improvements.

tinc is a Virtual Private Network (VPN) daemon that uses tunneling and encryption to create a secure private network between multiple hosts on the Internet. This tunneling allows VPN sites to share information with each other over the Internet without exposing any information.

Changes: Fixed a potential segmentation fault when connecting to an IPv6 peer via a proxy. Minor improvements made to the build system. Various other fixes.

AIEngine is a packet inspection engine with capabilities of learning without any human intervention. It helps network/security professionals to identify traffic and develop signatures for use them on NIDS, Firewalls, Traffic classifiers and so on.

Changes: Fixed an issue on SSL issuer certificate. Improvements on SSL for support TLS 1.3 Various other updates.

GnuPG (the GNU Privacy Guard or GPG) is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage. It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures. It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC2440. As such, it is meant to be compatible with PGP from NAI, Inc. Because it does not use any patented algorithms, it can be used without any restrictions.

GNUnet is a peer-to-peer framework with focus on providing security. All peer-to-peer messages in the network are confidential and authenticated. The framework provides a transport abstraction layer and can currently encapsulate the network traffic in UDP (IPv4 and IPv6), TCP (IPv4 and IPv6), HTTP, or SMTP messages. GNUnet supports accounting to provide contributing nodes with better service. The primary service build on top of the framework is anonymous file sharing.

Changes: This is a pre-release to assist developers and downstream packagers to test the package before the final release after four years of development.

Bro is a powerful network analysis framework that is much different from the typical IDS you may know. While focusing on network security monitoring, Bro provides a comprehensive platform for more general network traffic analysis as well. Well grounded in more than 15 years of research, Bro has successfully bridged the traditional gap between academia and operations since its inception. Today, it is relied upon operationally in particular by many scientific environments for securing their cyber-infrastructure. Bro's user community includes major universities, research labs, supercomputing centers, and open-science communities.

Changes: Multiple fixes and improvements to BinPAC generated code related to array parsing, with potential impact to all Bro's BinPAC-generated analyzers in the form of buffer over-reads or other invalid memory accesses depending on whether a particular analyzer incorrectly assumed that the evaluated-array-length expression is actually the number of elements that were parsed out from the input. Various other updates.

Changes: Tor 0.3.3.6 is the first stable release in the 0.3.3 series. It backports several important fixes from the 0.3.4.1-alpha. The Tor 0.3.3 series includes controller support and other improvements for v3 onion services, official support for embedding Tor within other applications, and our first non-trivial module written in the Rust programming language. (Rust is still not enabled by default when building Tor.) And as usual, there are numerous other smaller bugfixes, features, and improvements.

Wireshark is a GTK+-based network protocol analyzer that lets you capture and interactively browse the contents of network frames. The goal of the project is to create a commercial-quality analyzer for Unix and Win32 and to give Wireshark features that are missing from closed-source sniffers.

Blue Team Training Toolkit (BT3) is an attempt to introduce improvements in current computer network defense analysis training. Based on adversary replication techniques, and with reusability in mind, BT3 allows individuals and organizations to create realistic computer attack scenarios, while reducing infrastructure costs, implementation time and risk. The Blue Team Training Toolkit is written in Python, and it includes the latest versions of Encripto's Maligno and Pcapteller.

Changes: This release introduces an improved BT3 API account registration process, support for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, and other minor adjustments.

PacketFence is a network access control (NAC) system. It is actively maintained and has been deployed in numerous large-scale institutions. It can be used to effectively secure networks, from small to very large heterogeneous networks. PacketFence provides NAC-oriented features such as registration of new network devices, detection of abnormal network activities including from remote snort sensors, isolation of problematic devices, remediation through a captive portal, and registration-based and scheduled vulnerability scans.

Changes: Updated the computername (hostname) of a node using the Fingerbank Collector data. Detects uplinks based on CDP flag instead of a string. Puts etcd in its own directory. Various other updates.
